Hugh Hewitt Possessed By John Stewart: "You're Hurting the Reagan Revolution!"

Surely you remember John Stewart's little rant about "hurting America".

(I hear you say, "Of course I do, but don't call me Shirley!")

Stewart's a funny guy, but I wouldn't trust him to spot what's bad for America... at least not while he's on Comedy Central. Now, we have Hugh Hewitt practically parrotting Stewart's words.

Hewitt... the guy who hosts an afternoon drive-time radio show, the mister nice guy of conservative talk shows, the pleasant and affable guy... the guy who has some of the worst bumper music in talk radio (and talks with a guy on one of his Friday segments that gabs about top ten movie lists with some of the most overrated films in the categories they select)... he's such a water carrier for G.W.'s administration.

Hey, don't get me wrong... overall I'm a G.W. guy. He spends like a drunken sailor, but considering the alternatives we had in the 2000 and 2004 elections I'll take George any day.

Let me shift back to the point. Hewitt apparently went crazy-eight bonkers the other day while poo-pooing the anti-Miers camp of the Republicans... Speed Gibson has a select transcript.

Listen! Listen, please! You are hurting the Republican Party’s chance of holding the Senate in 2005. You are hurting the Republican Party’s chance of hanging on to the Supreme Court’s gradual shift to the right. You are being completely disingenuous in your arguments and you dress poorly if you do not like Harriet Mier’s nomination.

C'mon, Hugh... debate's good, isn't it?

Once again, Speed Gibson discusses Hewitt's possition... he's anti-anti-Miers.
